History of the Ayr United v Alloa Athletic fixture

Alloa Ath. face a trip to Ayr United at Somerset Park, Ayr on Saturday afternoon, and have come away with little in previous meetings, having been beaten a depressing 26 out of 39 times.

The most recent encounter between these two sides was less than a year ago, in March 2005, where the two sides shared the spoils courtesy of a 1 - 1 final scoreline in a Scottish Division Two match.

Recent respective form guides

Ayr United's poor home run has seen them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. The Honest Men's have scored 6 goals in these games, but conceded an alarming 7.

Alloa Ath.'s away form is none too clever either, seeing them win just 1 and draw 2 of the last six. While the Wasps have hit 6 goals, 15 have hit the back of the wrong net.

Ayr Utd. lie just outside the playoff positions in the Bells Scottish Division Two, picking up 12 points from their 9 games so far. Alloa Ath. are hovering perilously just above the relegation zone, with 9 points from 9 matches.
